nature has actually contacted me for comment about accusations that Sci-Hub is a threat, here is my full response / it is clear that academic publishers care about their money, not about security of other people

Super cool video and wonderful story :)
@Dima made a cool video about my octopus experience :D -videos.trom.tf/w/svf9xeAmkEzgz…
Here I explain the story of how I met and started interacting with these octopuses :)
See my blog for more details: bigworldsmallsasha.com/2021/04…These days the water temperature is about 14-15 degrees, but I'm still going in there to interact with these octopuses :D Yesterday I found a very friendly one who chased me around the bay. I'll see if I can film him :)
Big thanks to Dima for the video :)

My Octopus Friend
Ever since I watched the film My Octopus Teacher, I’ve been dreaming of meeting an octopus. Then, it finally happened- in a beautiful rocky bay in Northern Spain. An octopus grabbed my foot, then Ivideos.trom.tf

So it took around 6h to render 1h. That's ok I guess. We watched the first part and I like it so far. It is hard to judge to be honest, after seeing it so many times while editing it. But I guess is ok. :)
Now I'll have to figure if I will continue with the same kdenlive project or start a new one. Now Kndelive takes about 2 or so hours to open. I'd like to use the same project since all of the files are there, but if it takes so long to open it is a pain in the ass and I'm also concerned at one point it may not open at all...I'll se... #tromlive

"New Chinese toilet paper dispenser requires you to watch a 30 second ad before it gives you toilet paper, and it only gives you about 3 per ad. Spotted in Guangdong province." teddit.net/r/assholedesign/com…
This is reddit so idk if this is 100% true, but I won't be surprised if it is. The trade game. Money is not the problem, trade is. And this message is becoming more and more powerful and important the more we "advance" as a society, where humans will implement a lot more trades that are not based on money. Same shit, different flavors. (pun intended).

Rendering the full first part of TROM II !!! :D Damn. Finally! I am curious how many hours it will take Kdenlive to render it.
Excited to watch it fully, uninterrupted. #tromlive

Change layouts: from Modern to Classic, and vice-versa forum.tromjaro.com/t/change-la…
I made a tutorial about this. From now on we will move our Articles section from TROMjaro.com to the forum. See forum.tromjaro.com/c/tips/7 #tromlive
Oh wow finally all of my files finished backing up to the online place :) . Millions of files. Awesome! From now on its only job is to sync all of my files to the cloud. So all of my files are now backed-up locally on a hard drive, then to another online location independent of any of our servers. Great!
I was also able to work on TROM II today a little bit. I am still not 100% done with the first part. Need to improve a few things here and there. Hopefully tomorrow I will work all day on it. Who knows, I may even finish it entirely tomorrow. It is not that much to do.
Then I have to decide if I wanna continue the project in the same Kdenlive one or create a separate Kdenlive project. It is already taking around 1h to open the project. So I'll have to think deep and well about it! #tromlive

I updated some stuff for tromjaro.com/ homepage to reflect the latest changes to TROMjaro. Had to record again a bunch of videos and such. But I think is worth it. Looks great! For example the laptop slider we have there, that showcases the wallpapers we use, now allows you to click any wallpaper and download in full resolution. From now on I plan to make a bunch of tutorials about a bunch of things TROMjaro related ;) and post them on the forum ofc.

I went to the museum today. Actually to two of them, in Barcelona. Very nice. Science museums of course. I am blown away by the diversity of creatures that are on this planet or have been. Look at this motherfucker - an elephant with a big tooth or lip whatever that is. Never saw that before:
It looks like is not real....
Anyway, tomorrow I am getting back to work on TROM II if nothing odd happens to the Kdenlive project...I will also share new sources for TROMjaro and TROM files downloads. So that you can grab our files from yet another reliable location. Speaking of that I am almost done with the online backups :D . Feels so great! I am so happy we can backup all of our files online too. Such a relief. #tromlive

We have released a new TROMjaro ISO, actually 2! We are releasing in two flavors from now on: Modern and Classic. See the release notes forum.tromjaro.com/t/tromjaro-…
With this release we are moving closer to getting TROMjaro XFCE out of Beta. And for that reason we are releasing two versions. Let me explain the “them” and the “why”. TROMjaro Modern. TROMjaro Modern is similar to our original TROMjaro Gnome.TROMjaro Forum

Not all is nice and dandy with linux+xfce. XFCE is really great, but on my laptop (having Nvidia) my TROMjaro crashes every 2 or so days to the point of no return. I have to manually shut it down from the button. No TTY working. That's a super duper bad bug. :(
Especially when you work on a multi hour and massive documentary, while at the same time I may build a new tromjaro ISO, have so many projects, emails, millions of files to sync...it is a disaster.
It is not linux or xfce's fault, but nvidia or other manufacturers that do not provide proper support for their hardware. Same tromjaro works perfectly fine on other laptops I am testing.
So let's see. I reported the bug here gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/xfwm4/-/i…
Trying some of the tips the devs recommended. #tromlive

Thanks to the amazingness of Frendica, I created a new profile that auto posts from Reddit, from the most awesome subreddits about nature. Basically I created an RSS feed via rss.trom.tf then a Friendica account that mirrors that RSS. There it is: social.trom.tf/profile/brp
Anyone on the Fediverse can now follow it! #tromlive

in reply to Tio • •True. They do it for years. But difference is that it was « in-game » currency, so you could buy other skins or in-game goods if you sold something. There were some black markets ofc, where people converted their in-game bucks to real value, but it wasn’t easy and some platforms are not trustworthy at all.
Now with NFT you can sold that shit for real crypto and potentially have good real money easier with support of giant companies, which ofc will take their interest from each transaction.

in reply to Tio • •Agreed, there’s nothing new, again. But I kinda was kicked in the butt observing how every single good idea can is turned into trading hell. The games, which use that trading, can be dumb as hell, stupid shooters or whatever, in the same time having so much potential in education, for example. So you are not a gamer anymore, you are a fuckin’ trader!
Seriously, these guys can turn anything into fuckin’ dipshit market, lol 😅
